1944 Map of Abbott Butte

About this map

Abbott Butte stands as a prominent landmark at the intersection of the Umpqua National Forest and Rogue River National Forest during the mid-1940s. The landscape is defined by a network of resource management and early backcountry settlement, evidenced by the presence of the Dumont Ranger Sta, Matthews Guard Sta, and the Hawk Creek Sta. These locations served as critical hubs for foresters and fire lookouts throughout the Cascade Range.
